Sommario/riassunto

Eleven million German soldiers were captured during the Second World War, of which over three million were in British camps. For the first time, Renate Held presents the British prisoner of war policy comprehensively. It reveals motives, decision-making processes and acts of detention as well as their effects on the prisoners concerned. She embeds her everyday and mental history research object in the military and political history framework. It becomes clear how much the fate and everyday life of the prisoners depended on the course of the war and the political decisions of the opponents of the war.

Sommario/riassunto

The topological fundamental group of a smooth complex algebraic variety is poorly understood. One way to approach it is to consider its complex linear representations modulo conjugation, that is, its complex local systems. A fundamental problem is then to single out the complex points of such moduli spaces which correspond to geometric systems, and more generally to identify geometric subloci of the moduli space of local systems with special arithmetic properties. Deep conjectures have been made in relation to these problems. This book



studies some consequences of these conjectures, notably density, integrality and crystallinity properties of some special loci. This monograph provides a unique compelling and concise overview of an active area of research and is useful to students looking to get into this area. It is of interest to a wide range of researchers and is a useful reference for newcomers and experts alike.
